The CX-30 as a compact crossover model slots between both its siblings, the CX-3, and the CX-5. But in comparison to both, the 2022 CX-30 model features a greater number of technologies applied to its various sections. All this enable the Mazda crossover to deliver a refined ride quality and better performance. Here we must mention the fact that back in the year 2020, Mazda has introduced a new turbocharged 2.5L engine to power the CX-30 models released for the 2021 model year. It was duly placed right beside the standard 2.5L NA engine. The said lineup year also saw the turbo-4 engine picking up a speed of 0-60 mph in merely 5.8 seconds, reported an auto journalist at the gallery of the Mazda dealer serving Tempe and Phoenix.

Under the hoods of the base trim of the 2022 Mazda CX30 model lies a 2.5L inline-4-cylinder engine that can spit out 186 horsepower and 186 lb.-ft of torque. This engine is coupled to a six-speed automatic transmission that carries the engine power to the front-wheels by default. This combination of power elements is set as the standard across the entire lineup of the 2022 Mazda CX-30 series.
However, the lineup also hosts a 2.5L turbocharged inline-4 engine for the keen drivers to get their models equipped with 227 horsepower and 310 lb.-ft of torque.
